Vadodara’s Akota–Dandia Bazaar road reopens after bullet train work

The Akota–Dandia Bazaar road in Vadodara reopened on Wednesday after remaining closed since March 27 due to ongoing bullet train construction work.

The stretch is a key east-west connector in the city and its closure had affected traffic movement across multiple areas.

With the road now open, travel time along the corridor is expected to reduce, easing congestion in surrounding localities, reported The Times of India.

The closure had been required to facilitate construction activity linked to the high-speed rail project.

Commuters had been using alternate routes during the period, leading to increased traffic on parallel roads.

Reopening of the stretch restores a major link in the city’s road network.

The development reflects ongoing infrastructure work tied to the bullet train corridor.
